In an interview with gamespot, that dude sator......(whatever) said....
“…Nintendo has teams working on meeting the needs of more hardcore gamers. The big complaint from them now may be that we’re not pouring all of our resources into that sector exclusively, but I feel that it’s Nintendo’s mission to make both kinds of games. Every experienced gamer today was a beginner at some point, who encountered an experience that made them fall in love with games.
I think it’s absolutely critical to keep that entryway open for new people. I think it’s really important to strike that balance between the two extremes. While it’s possible to create a game like Brain Age in an extremely short period of time with a great idea and the right people, a game like Zelda contains content that physically and inevitably demands more time to create."
Ok, what i've learned from dealing with Xbox & PS3 fans. Hardcore means blood and violence, boobs and A$$.
From what I've learned from Webster and grade school, Hardcore means devotion and commitment.
If i go with Xbox & PS3 fans, then I guess nintendo wears diapers & a bib,
But if i go with webster, wouldn't Zelda qualify as one of the most hardcore series ever.
I lost more than 50hrs of my life thx to twilight princess....
( that puzzle with the 2 statutes that u have to return to their original spot took like 2 weeks of frustration, I would turn the game off after 20mins of trying, and I wouldn't touch my Wii till the next day. )
Gears of War took 2 days...3 if u count playing past midnight.
So to end all my ranting.. Give me your definition of a hardcore gamer!,
..PS.... The couch potato that lives in mommies basement and eats BBQ chips all day, wears a dirty tank top and shorts is not a hardcore gamer, he's a loser gamer.
Also if you currently receive a weekly allowance, you are not a hardcore gamer you are a KID, no matter how many kills you have in Halo 3
And if you own DOA extreme, you are not hardcore you are a perv.
my signature went on strike, it's demanding 3% raise
